THERE ARE A lot of very disappointed football fans scattered around Europe this afternoon after Marco Reus put pen to paper on a new contract with Borussia Dortmund.
The German forward had attracted attention from the likes of Real Madrid and Manchester Untied but will now remain with Dormund – who remain just a point off the bottom of the Bundesliga – until 2019.
Reus has 70 goals in 169 games and Managing Director Hans-Joachim Watzke compared the Germany international to Steven Gerrard.
“Marco can shape an era in Dortmund, as has done before by Uwe Seeler in Hamburg or Steven Gerrard in Liverpool. That Marco has decided midst of a sporting crisis for BVB shows a high degree of loyalty of which we are very proud.”
Nope I’m sorry but Ray Ridge aka Aidan Farrell has declared you useless so you may as well pack your bags because he is the all knowing all seeing authority on everything. Don’t be using the fact you had to come back from a potential career ending injury after arriving as an excuse. Or the fact it takes time to adapt to the style and system. You should just be world class immediately. Look at kolisi how he adapted so well in France and Kitchoff in Ulster. Both hit the ground running.
@anthony davoren: nothing about world class dropping every ball that comes near him. Unfortunately I have to agree with him this time he’s been a very poor signing.
Just don’t see it in him???? Where’s the compensation for his size and weight???? Easily stopped and not a lot of imagination in his play so??? I can’t see it.
